It is hard to see the life of someone special leave the planet Earth. I am touched by those who have written here - thank you for your comments. He is a kind and gentle soul that has impacted many, many lives and his earthly presence will be missed.

I would like for Pete's family to know that the produce industry will greatly miss such a fine mentor. I know of many great leaders within the industry who have been on the other end of his special phone system. Many of these leaders loved to trade stories about what they were able to learn from him. There are plenty of tips that he tought me that are now my daily habits and will be for some time to come. My hear goes out to you for your loss. May God Bless you always. SY

Pete, You are saluted and recognized at every meeting I have with Ciruli Bros. You were the foundation, inspiration and guiding light for so many years. Your insights have been brilliant and accurate over the years. May you rest in peace my friend and forever may you be honored by the people you so profoundly touched.

I will always remember Pete's smile. He always had a great story. He loved his family and was always gracious and generous to us all. Pete was loved greatly and will be missed. If you want to see some recent pictures of Pete doing what he loved, please go to http://photos.drhustead.com.
